Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000225647 ABB: The ACH580 with ABB E-Clipse bypass has an integrated UL (NEMA) Type 1 enclosure with a bypass motor starter and is available from 1 to 75 hp at 230/460/575 V. The ACH580 with ABB E-Clipse bypass provides an input disconnect switch or circuit breaker, both including fast acting drive fuses, with door mounted and interlocked switch (padlockable in the OFF position), a bypass starter, electronic motor overload protection, a door mounted control panel with graphical display for local control, provisions for external control connections, and serial communications capability
The ACH580 HVAC drive combines the E-Clipse bypass with a dedicated bypass starter and an optional input disconnect, enabling service without fully removing the drive from the electrical panel. This arrangement translates to faster maintenance, fewer field wiring changes, and reduced downtime for HVAC fans and pumps. UL listing and a NEMA Type 1 enclosure provide a robust, indoor-safe installation while the door-mounted OFF switch supports quick, lockable safety during service. Electronic motor overload protection guards windings against fault conditions, lowering nuisance trips and extending motor life. A door-mounted graphical control panel, external control connections, and serial communications capability make commissioning and BMS integration straightforward, speeding routine checks and fault diagnostics. The 1 to 75 hp, 230/460/575 V specification delivers scalable performance for a wide range of HVAC loads, reducing spare parts and procurement complexity. Compact packaging with built‑in fast-acting fuses and centralized control supports retrofit projects and new buildings alike.
